congrats on the 4k chris.... kinda makes ya wonder, if you had $1 for every post....
'an justin, it is quite a beast, lol. removing it from the riviara it was in bent our best crowbar into a cool "U" shape, and our engine hoist blew the seals outta the piston trying to pick it up, lol. its damn heavy, but makes GOBS of low end torque (465 lb/ft at something like 3,000 RPM) and its assembeled like a brick you-know-what house. hell, the brackets for the accesories gotta weigh 40+ lbs on their own
when im done with it i hope it will look something like this in my engine bay...

thanks Amy and everyone else, not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing but I must say, I really enjoy my time on the forum. I look forward to being here on a daily basis and hanging out with a great bunch of people who have a great love for Monte Carlos
